!!!Maryland Annual and Quarterly Reporting
 
!!What's New for Tax Year 2020
According to information noted in [2020 Contributions Supported File Formats - Unemployment Insurance [2009 Magnetic Media Guide|https://www.dllr.state.md.us/employment/ewageformat.shtml#icesa], there are no format changes in wage reporting.

!!Set Up
!IDGV - State Registration
*The [IDGV Definition|IDGV#DefinitionTab] tab must be set up for ‘State Registration’ for State/Province: Maryland.
*The [IDGV Variables|IDGV#VariablesTab] tab must be set up for ‘State Registration’ for State/Province: Maryland.
*‘W2 STATE MEDIA FILING’- Must be ‘02’ to generate MD State magnetic media file for MD state only.

!IDGV – Form MW508 Information for Maryland
*MD State Form MW508 – ‘Annual Employer Withholding Reconciliation Report’ is required to report on Code RE record.
*When [RPYEU] is run for the first time for State of Maryland, RPYEU will automatically add the following user defined fields  on [IMUF] screen for [P2K_CM_GOVT_REGISTRATIONS] which will be available on [IDGV Variables|IDGV#VariablesTab] tab after [RPYEU] is run.
**MW508 -  Gross
**MW508 Line 1 – W2/1009
**MW508 Line 2 – TOTAL TAX
**MW508 Line 3 – STATE TAX
**MW508 Line 3A – CREDITS
**MW508 Line 3B – TAX EXEMPT CR
**MW508 Line 4 – TAX DUE
**MW508 Line 5 – OVERPAYMENT
**MW508 Line 6 – OVERPAYMENT CR
**MW508 Line 7 – REFUND
**MW508 REP CCYYMMDD
**MW508 REP NAME
**MW508 REP TEL
**MW508 REP TITLE
**MW508 TOTAL FILE IND
*All the information for the form MW508 must be manually entered on the [IDGV Variables|IDGV#VariablesTab] tab by State Registration number for the reporting year.  This information will be reported on Code RE record; no calculation will be performed in [RPYEU].  
*[RPYEU] should be run the first time to obtain State totals and then the MW508 information should be manually calculated and entered on the [IDGV] screen. [RPYEU] should then be run the second time in order to pick up MW508 information on Code RE record. The Code RE record must be manually verified prior to sending the State media file to the State of Maryland.

!IDFDV – ‘HL$US-W2-2007’ Form Set Up
*On Code RS Record position 287-297 Maryland State Income Tax Withheld, Maryland State requires to report the ‘Total of State and Local Taxes Withheld Together’, if the the State and Local taxes together are to be reported together, the [IDFDV] screen Identifier ‘W2-ST-TAX-HOME’ and ‘W2-ST-TAX-WORK’ must be changed to include the local taxes in an Element.  Then on the [IPPE] Element screen, the local taxes should be added into the proper elements accordingly.  When running [RPYEU] to generate the State File for Maryland, the program will not automatically add together the State and Local taxes, the Local tax MUST be manually included if local tax is applicable

!IPRLU – Maintain US Pay Rules
*On Code RS record position 368-369 Maryland State requires to report the number of exemptions claimed by the employee on Form W4, Employee Withholding Allowance. On the [IPRLU State|IPRLU#section-IPRLU-StateTab] tab, if the number of Exemption 1 is specified, this number of exemptions is used, otherwise the number of exemptions on  [Federal|IPRLU#section-IPRLU-FederalTab] tab is used.
